L.L.M as a requirement for law practice?
Wed Aug 06, 2008 09:39 AM
Hi Everyone!

Could anyone please tell me, in which african countries an L.L.M in general is a requirement for law practice as a judge, a barrister, a solicitor, prosecutor or any other regulated law professions?

Which regulated professions in african countries or other require specifically an LLM in Tax Law?

Thanx in advance .

LLM is not a general requirement as such. emphasis is mainly on the work experience as a practicing advocate. Most countires list hteir requirements to include practice and not necessarily an LLM.
An LLm is just an added advantage.

Sure, an LLM is a requirement for one to be a lecturer in most universities, especially in East Africa.
